Connie's unhappy marriage to Clifford Chatterley is scarred by mutual frustration and alienation. Her solitary existence is contained within the stifling parameters of Wragby, the Chatterley ancestral home. Connie is then presented with a chance to seize happiness and freedom when she finds herself in a consuming love affair with the estate's gamekeeper, Mellors, and discovers a world of sexual opportunity and pleasure she'd thought was lost to her.
The explosive passion of Connie and Mellors' relationship - and the searing candor with which it is described - marked a watershed in twentieth-century fiction, garnering Lady Chatterley's Lover a wide and enduring readership and lasting notoriety. The text is taken from the privately published Author's Unabridged Popular Edition of 1930, the last to be supervised by D. H. Lawrence in his lifetime.Connie's unhappy marriage to Clifford Chatterley is scarred by mutual frustration and alienation.
